Today we are going to take a look at 10 contemporary notebook models that boast one common feature: they all have 14-inch widescreen display. Will these solutions prove great business companions? Read more about solutions from ASUS, Acer, LG, MSI, Samsung, Sony and Toshiba.

The layout is classic except that the Window and Context Menu keys are in the top row – if you are used to keyboard shortcuts involving these keys, you have to learn them anew. There are only two additional buttons here:

And one button of these two is responsible for switching between the displays which is not a very frequent action.

A fingerprint scanner is available:

So, the notebook is up to the latest trends in notebook-making. The touchpad looks like the one of the Sony notebook.

The same minimalism and functionality, but the cursor positioning accuracy seems a little worse to me.

The display is average. Its maximum brightness is not very high; its anti-glare coating is too “grainy”; its viewing angles are narrow and color reproduction is average. This display would suit an ordinary low-end product better than to a midrange business notebook.

The bottom panel is unique in its own right – I haven’t seen such an irregular bottom in any other notebook:

There are a lot of individual compartments here, so it’s not a problem to replace a component like memory or wireless adapter.

The battery is nearly standard:

It’s a little below average in capacity, and you’ll see in the Tests section how it tells on the notebook’s battery life.

And this is the included power adapter:

Its size and characteristics are average, so I have nothing more to add.

The Tecra A6-S513 is a kind of entry-level business-class notebook. With the configuration it has, it is not a low-end product, but it is not a normal business notebook, either. The most disturbing fact is its price. I doubt this model can make anyone interested when it costs the same or even bigger money than most other models in this review.
